Hi All,
I'm more than a little out of touch with TV options having spent years on satellite. I've now moved and have an aerial again, so hoping you can tell me if what I want actually exists or not. I need a Freeview box and i would like it to:
Recording isnt needed but no harm in having it (as long as there box is close to silent as installing in the bedroom).
Solutions i looked at and have discounted include:
Any suggestions? Or do i need to accept that perfection doesnt yet exist and make a compromise somewhere?
Thanks!
I'm more than a little out of touch with TV options having spent years on satellite. I've now moved and have an aerial again, so hoping you can tell me if what I want actually exists or not. I need a Freeview box and i would like it to:
- Have fast, easy to use software (primary user is my wife so zero complexity allowed!)
- Include catch up TV and streaming such as Plex, Amazon and Netflix
- Be able to be installed in a cupboard (ie out of sight) - so Bluetooth remote would be ideal - could possibly live with an IR blaster if the points above are met
- Full HD required, 4k nice to have but not essential
Recording isnt needed but no harm in having it (as long as there box is close to silent as installing in the bedroom).
Solutions i looked at and have discounted include:
- BT TV Pro (remote will not control my Finlux TV - dual remote option not acceptable to my wife)
- Humax Aura (no Netflix)
- Humax FVP-5000T (poor software reviews, IR remote)
Any suggestions? Or do i need to accept that perfection doesnt yet exist and make a compromise somewhere?
Thanks!
